IMAGE_SIGNIF: 6.90 [sigma]
FLAGS: 0x1
MERIT: 76.00
SUN_POSTN: 200.69d {+13h 22m 45s} -8.71d {-08d 42' 20"}

MOON_DIST: 33.39 [deg]
MOON_ILLUM: 9 [%]
GAL_COORDS: 0.47, -0.94 [deg] galactic lon,lat of the burst (or transient)
ECL_COORDS: 267.89, -5.60 [deg] ecliptic lon,lat of the burst (or transient)
COMMENTS: SWIFT Figure-of-Merit decision.
COMMENTS: This was of sufficient merit to become the new Automated Target;
COMMENTS: but if the Current PPT has a greater merit, then we will not request a slew.
COMMENTS: This matches a source in the ground catalog: SAX1750.8-2900, delta=0.040 [deg].
COMMENTS:
COMMENTS: The next comments were copied from the BAT_POS Notice:
COMMENTS: This is a rate trigger.
COMMENTS: A point_source was found.
COMMENTS: This matches a source in the on-board catalog.
COMMENTS: This is not a GRB.
COMMENTS: Since the IMAGE_SIGNIF is less than 7 sigma, this is a questionable detection.
COMMENTS: This trigger occurred at longitude,latitude = 185.93,8.89 [deg].
